Mixed classes And Pedagogical Solutions (MAPS) was a comparative research project carried out in collaboration between the universities of Helsinki, Amsterdam and Iceland. We sought answers to how urban schools in Helsinki, Amsterdam and Reykjavík tackle challenges brought on by segregation with the idea of inclusive education. The project was situated in the research unit Social Studies in Urban Education (SURE). MAPS was funded by NordForsk for a three-year period in 2018–2020.
